Huckleberries: A Bride & Her Kubota

The bride was lovely. The groom was nervous. The wedding carriage was spit-shined – a new Kubota tractor upon which bride Libby Stockdale made her grand entrance to her wedding at the Western Pleasure Guest Ranch, 16 miles northeast of Sandpoint. Libby’s pop, Doug, was at the wheel. Libby was radiant, sitting in the front bucket, holding a bouquet of sunflowers. Now, Franck Eggelhoffer (Martin Short’s character in “Father of the Bride”) might not approve of Libby’s rural “limo.” But Marianne Love of the Slight Detour blog reports that witnesses enjoyed the “laid-back, warm, friendly gathering” that united Libby and Isaac Schoonover. Adding to the North Idaho flavor, the guests sat on hay bales. Bandannas inscribed with Libby’s and Isaac’s names served as favors/ DFO , Hucks Online. More here.
